About this title

Review

Outstanding. A complete (obviously) of the whole area of bodyweight training. Progressions, and often regressions, in using calisthenics is always an issue in both personal and large group training. This book is going to be a goldmine for those of us who still believe bodyweight work is fundamental to success. --Dan John, Coach and author of Never Let Go and Intervention
